MCKAY WINS TWO RACES.
A Large Crowd and a Fine Course
Billy McGeehan Makes a
Gallant Effort.

Ever since the boat race on the Fourth
Of July, there has been much discussion
as to the merits of our boatmen- Billy Nc
Geehan has had warm supporters and so
has Dan Mckay. Finally a match was
made between the rival oarsmen by Doc
Spurgin and Joe Hamilton. Doc
backed Mckay for $40 and Joe put up a
like sum for Mcclellan.
The race came off Thursday in light of
a large number Of people, including many
ladies' and nearly all the sportsmen in the
city. Betting went On freely before the
start, which was tardy. Atlength the boats
could be deserted in the distance, advanc-
Ing quickly toward the line. Mckay vino
has the longer boat makes q squirt and at
tains the lead. He rows with a quick, ner-
yous stroke and handles the oars skillfully.
McGeehan who Is a heavier and more
powerful man strives to gain on his rival,
but without success for he holds the lead
to the close and wins by fully a boat length.
There was loud cheering as the oarsmen
neared the line and each seemed to do his
best toward the finish.
As soon as the r &c was over McGeehan's
hackers said that he was at a disadvantage
because Mckay had a better boat. They
said that if the boats we're changed Nc
Geehan would win. Doc Spurgin pluck
lily took up the challenge and another arce
was arranged. The oarsmen were rowed
to the starting point and then left to them
selves.
The race was we'll contested and the
boats were close to each other till near
the finish, when Mckay forged ahead and
did not allow Mcclellan to gain on him
until he had crossed the line.
There was a good deal of money staked
on each race and bets were paid cheerfully.
The speed was good and each race was
conducted squarely and according to the
best rules.
The fine course which Broadwater bay
affords for boat contests was the subject
of general remark and it was predicted
that this will be the favorite place for col
lege races and other aquatic displays.

Where Lovers may Kiss.

Ouray offers to the refined and wealthy
of the overheated east harbor free from
each and every evil tending to make life a
burden in the lower and more densely
populated attitudes. Ouray is headquar-
tiers for scenery, the distributing point for
climate: the anglers haven and nimrod's
paradise. We have drives lovely beyond
description. We have walks where lovers
can kiss without detection and embrace
without discovery. We have densely
shaded grottos where the overlanging
boughs shield the susceptible and unsus-
pecting, and a constituency the male por-
ton Of which is accommodating beyond
belief. Come early and avoid the rush
Ouray Col. Mu3doon.

Gallant Bandsmen.

General Brooke very courteously allow
ed the military band to remain here Tu-
esday. His courtesy in every detail con-
nected with the band is greatly appreciat-
ed by the people, and to-day the letter ap-
pended is being signed and will be sent to
the general as a slight expression of the
regard in which the gallant commander is
held in this city:
General: In behalf of the city of Great
Falls, We tender you u sincere thanks
for the courtesy you have evinced in al
lowing the military band to play here on
the national holiday. These mastery
musicians aided us considerably in doing
honor to the great men of the revolution,
many Of whom, like yourself, won fame
on the battlefield. We shall always
cherish the warmest regard for yourself
and the important post which you COM
mand 80 successfully. With much esteem
we subscribe ourselves.
The band spent the day very enjoy
ably. Early in the day they visited the
Giant springs where Krebs took a pho
tograph of the band and the ~ever-howing
fountains. In the evening they marched
through First and Central avenues at the
head Of a grand torch light procession,
in which many citizens Joined. Among
those who carried torches and entered
heartily into the merriment, were Messrs.
Wetzel, Parker, Smith and Stanton. Sec
rotary Nichols also accompanied the boys
and showed good marching qualities.
Will Nichols made an excellent drum
major and an amateur artist with Gym
balls increased the volume of har-
mony. The band gave the TRIBUNE a
serenade which was gratefully appreciat-
ed. After the procession they %serenaded
Mr.. Paris Gibson, who thanked them
cordially for the compliment.
Will Nichols, who is authority on music
and left nothing undone for the entertain
lnent Of the guests, say that they have the
finest selection of military and other pieces
that he ever heard, including many fine,
soul-stirring marches and such classic
gems as Schubert's serenade. Drummer
Moore has been in the service twenty-one
years and has attained perfect mastery of
his art. Matchbox is also admirable on the
clarionet, but they are all splendid play
ers. Sergeant Blume and privates HELEN
beck and Graves may come here when
their time is cut and organize a band.
The department Of the band was excel
lent. They entered readily into the fes-
tive spirit of the occasion, and when they
left here next morning they carried with
them many wishes that their lives may be
as harmonious and as pleasant as their
music.

CINCINNATI, November 9.-The COM
plete footings for Hamilton county are not
vet made, but enough is shown to make it
clear that the Republican plurality will be
about 10000. The United Labor leaders
are disappointed and dispondent. They
were confident that they would elect their
legislative ticket, but when the returns
showed losses in their strongest wards,
they quickly gave up all as lost. One of
the leaders says there is no chance for a
Labor party here. A victory was needed
to hold the men together, but now
it will be useless to attempt
to elect ticket. The evidence of COM
binatiOn are seen in the figures of the
Governors vote, and that of the Legisla-
tive ticket. The Union Labor legislative
ticket in Cincinnati is from two to three
thousand greater than for its Governor,
while the Democratic vote for Governor is
about four thousand greater than for its
legislative ticket. Governor Foraker's 8
vote is from six hundred to 1000 below
the vote on the Republican legislative
ticket.
The TTmes-Stdr in its summary Of the re-
suit of the election in Hamilton county
says the total vote was 64,Sl1. which is
over 5000 less than in October, 1885, and
nearly 5000 than the Presidential vote in
1884. 1t was an election of surprises.
The Republicans were confident of victory
but they really did not anticipate such an
overwhelming victory. The fact that
Foraker leads Powell in this county by
nearly 600 votes, in spite of the trade be-
tween the Democrats and the Uniotf labor
men, speaks volumes. The Union Labor
party instead of closely pressing the Re-
Dublicans or defeating them as predicted,
lags from $4,000 to $4,000 behind them,
and on an average of 5000 behind the
Democrats. This is the end of the Union
Labor party.
FOraker's Plurality.
CINCINNATI, November 9.-Unofficial
returns have been received from all the
counties in Ohio, except Ashtabla, Geau
qua, Ottawa, Padding, Perry, Shelby and
Union, estimating that these counties have
voted the same as in 1885, Foraker's plu-
rality for Governor over Powell, will be
20, ,633.
